Once again, misunderstandings arise due to a mistranslation. Instead of saying Speed's hair looks raggedy, the Chinese barber was describing his dreadlocks, which are known in Chinese as "Zang Bian" (脏辫, direct translation: dirty braids). His question was this: "Is that Zang Bian (deadlocks)? Such hair is difficult to trim.” There are many possible reasons behind the Mandarin translation Zang Bian, but none of them are racist or disrespectful. DeepSeek explains that "Dread" sounds like "Dirty" in some Chinese dialects, or that people in the past were unfamiliar with the haircut and assumed it couldn't be washed, making it messy after days. Because of the potential for confusion, the haircut is now also known as "锁辫"(locs) or "雷鬼辫 (Reggae braids)." However, most Chinese still use the name "Zang Bian" because it is more often used. Rednote is currently seeing a lot of Chinese internet users talking about the misleading translation.



For all I hear about China's "naval power," they don't have actual experience. They have a bunch of fishing boats, some diesel powered submarines, and some large floating targets for QuickSinks.



A team of Chinese scientists and surgeons successfully conducted a minimally invasive "brain-spine interface" (BSI) surgery, restoring a paralyzed patient's ability to stand and walk within 24 hours post-surgery. The surgery, fourth of its kind for clinical proof of concept, was conducted at Shanghai's Zhongshan Hospital, but it was the world's first to enable an individual with a total paraplegia – an impairment in motor or sensory function of the lower extremities – to be able to stand and walk through BSI technology, the hospital announced on Tuesday. The patient, surnamed Lin, is a 34-year-old from south China's Guangdong Province. Two years ago, he fell from a 4-meter-high staircase, sustaining severe spinal injuries and a brain hemorrhage. Despite extensive treatment, Lin's legs remained completely paralyzed, leaving him dependent on a wheelchair. Spinal cord injury disrupts communication between the brain and the part of the spinal cord that controls walking, resulting in paralysis. During the minimally invasive surgery, two electrode chips, each about one millimeter in diameter, were implanted into the brain's motor cortex. The entire procedure, including both brain and spinal cord interventions, was completed in just four hours. Within 24 hours post-surgery and with the assistance of artificial intelligence, the patient regained leg movement. The most significant challenge of this BSI technology lies in the limited number of electrodes available for implantation in the human body and the ability to decode human movement intentions in real time. From January to February this year, the team had completed three clinical proof-of-concept surgeries. Patients with severe spinal cord injuries regained the ability to control their legs and walk within two weeks. The team will continue to optimize and iterate the technology, aiming to restore walking ability for more spinal injury patients and bring hope to millions of patients and their families worldwide.





oh so NOW you’re learning mandarin

@Eivor_Koy 🖐️ Hi there... Um, yeah, that guy and his thing luckily ended and by 1978 China realized that self-reliance was keeping them behind. Capitalism, and trading with the world, enriched and brought China to where it is. Development is not always a good thing either.

@kylesockwell That swim was dope. Too bad that swimmer was on dope.




@Eivor_Koy Now speak out against your government and let me know how that works out for you.
